Perhaps no other papal document more eloquently articulates the importance of catechesis in our time — and how to undertake it — than Catechesi Tradendae. Written by Saint Pope John Paul II, this apostolic exhortation describes the important and unique roles the Church, the laity, and the family play in ensuring that all Catholics not only understand the Faith, but are prepared to live it fully.

“Saint Pope John Paul II gives the catechist the vision, methods, and roadmap for effective and dynamic catechesis in our modern culture.”
Bishop Kevin Vann, Bishop of Orange
